Intelligent Thermoelectric Sensing with Sustainable Strain‐Hardening Geopolymeric Composites

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2025.
Strain‐hardening geopolymeric composites (SHGCs) have been developed to combine thermoelectric sensing with improved structural resilience, crack resistance, and durability. By incorporating polyvinyl alcohol fibers and metal oxides, SHGC achieves high Seebeck coefficients and superior strain‐hardening behavior, ensuring effective crack control.
